The story of the intense life and brilliant work of architect and designer Cini Boeri, through the places she lived, the testimonies of those who knew her well and the works she created. ’The House of Cini Boeri’ is Milan—the city where Cini Boeri was born in 1924, where she studied and where she opened her studio in 1963. ’The House of Cini Boeri’ is also the architecture she designed—radical in form and evocative in name, always built in close harmony with the landscape, in various locations: the ’Bunker House;‘ built for herself and her family in 1968 on the wild rocks of La Maddalena island in Sardinia; the ’Round House‘ and the ’Sbandata,’ also on La Maddalena; and the ’House in the Woods‘ in a birch forest in Osmate (Varese). ’The House of Cini Boeri‘ is the home of a courageous protagonist of the 20th century—a pioneer, both in her choices and her designs, of a new way of living that helped revolutionise the role of women in the family, in work and in society.
